Servings: persons

1/3 cups Sliced Almonds
2-1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
1/3 cups Sugar
1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 cups Very Cold Butter
1 cup Diced Dried Fruit (I Used A Medley Of Pear, Apple, Apricot And Raisin)
1 cup Low Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 whole Egg
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 teaspoons Orange Extract (or Almond)
1 whole Egg White (or Substitute Melted Butter)
1/3 cups Powdered Sugar

1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and butter or line a baking sheet with parchment or a silpat.
2
In a small saute pan, stir almonds over medium heat until golden and fragrant. Set aside and allow to cool.
3
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture has coarse crumbs. Stir in almonds and fruit.
4
In a separate bowl, combine ricotta, 1 egg, vanilla and orange extracts. Fold ricotta mixture into flour mixture until just moistened. Move dough to a floured surface and knead for a couple of minutes until it sticks together.
5
Divide loaf in half and roll each half into an oval. Fold each oval in half.
6
Place the dough on baking sheet and bake 45-50 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to a rack to cool completely.
7
Brush the warm loaves with beaten egg white and dust completely with powdered sugar. If a raw egg scares you, you can use melted butter in place of the egg white before dusting
